1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Introduction: Mass gatherings increase infectious disease risks through human, environmental, and zoonotic pathways. The Grand Magal of Touba (GMT) involves the annual sacrifice of animals under limited biosafety, yet data on zoonotic pathogens are scarce. This cross-sectional exploratory study aimed to detect major zoonotic agents in livestock during the GMT and to provide baseline evidence to guide One Health surveillance. Materials and methods: From 2022 to 2024, post-mortem samples (blood, nasal and rectal swabs, skin, ticks) were collected from sacrificed animals and analyzed using molecular and culture-based methods. Results: 88 animals were included. Conclusion: These findings demonstrate active zoonotic circulation and stress the need for continuous surveillance of zoonotic pathogens in animals involved in the GMT. Given the close proximity of humans and livestock during such events, the potential for spillover of zoonotic agents necessitates a
